PREPARATIONS

CONFIRMATION AFTER ASSEMBLY

1

Make sure that the input voltage is within ±10% of the rated voltage for the instrument.
If the input voltage exceeds this range, use a constant-voltage power supply (marketed:
400VA or more).

2

Loosen the base brake knob, and move the control lever to verify that it moves smoothly.
1) Right-left movement
2) Back-forth movement
3) Up-down movement

Just after being unpacked, the right-left movement may be uneven.  If so, move the con-
trol lever with force to its limits in all directions.

3

If the instrument body is slightly off level, finely adjust the height by properly turning the
four adjusters.
Do not extend the adjusters past 1cm.
